Meiji MT5000 Series Infinity-Corrected Phase-Contrast Microscope

The Meiji MT5000 Phase-Contrast Series comprises upright microscopes designed for phase-contrast and brightfield observation.

Each model includes U Plan Phase objectives and a Zernike phase condenser with centreable phase annuli for 10X, 20X, 40X and 100X objectives. A separate brightfield position allows conventional brightfield observation when phase contrast is not required.

Binocular and trinocular configurations are available with either LED or halogen illumination. Trinocular models include a 1X C-mount and phototube for connecting a compatible microscope camera.
